Got Rescue Ratchet. Very cool figure, though lacking in detail. I'll be painting in some black and silver to take care of that, though

Only figure left from the movie line I want is Premium Jazz. Is he good? In comparison to the other figures, that is.

The Jazz mold is pretty decent. His arms are kind of fiddly, but the Premium paint scheme makes up for it.

Recent acquisitions for me if anyone cares reading about them:

Comic-Con Exclusive Classics Nemesis Prime (blue windows FTW)
Comic-Con Exclusive 6" Titanium Skywarp
BT Arcee (actually, she's quite a nice figure)
Break (the penguin)
G1 Ramhorn (my Blaster finally has a tape!)
Knock-Off Tigatron that's signifcantly bigger than BW Cheetor (regular Cheetor, no Transmetals)
Universe 2.0 Tankor
Universe 2.0 Galvatron (I actually like this Galvatron figure)

The Jazz mold takes a little getting used to, as he doesn't really have lower arms like you'd expect from most others. But the most odd thing about him is that he has no midsection. The upper torso attaches directly to his waist. On the nice points, Premium is the best for display with all the painstaking details picked out, which really should have been on the original release. And the Automorph is subtle, but very effective! (and works!) He's not as great as some of the other Deluxe figures, but well worth getting!:D

OK, now for the real reason I posted here. (and to not derail any further) I got Animated Grimlock and Slag (AKA Snarl) yesterday in Wal-Mart. Opinions will be posted in another thread.

After a couple days worth of debating with myself, I bought Universe Powerglide (rather than Silverbolt) at an Ohio TRU. Pretty cool.

Also, I know this doesn't belong here, but I ordered a CM's Corp. Brave Gokin Genesic Gao Gai Gar. It was on sale for 14,000 yen, or I probably wouldn't've. I'm excited!

Well, the title of this thread suggests otherwise!:D

Ahh, right...the title doesn't say they have to be newest Transformers aquisitions, but I think they typically are supposed to be, ha.

I'll talk more about it once I have it, in the "Other Toylines" part of the forum. Maybe...

A cheap-but-fun, store-bought one, or one of the professional-grade ones I used to spend way too much money on and always seemed to break?

I just got Universe Powerglide last night. He's awesome!

Just ordered Masterpiece Megatron from BBTS and Animated Soundwave from Hasbrotoystore.com.

Also got Lockdown but it's a gift for a friend.

My Takara classics Astrotrain came today and I really like it a lot. If only I could read Japanese then I could undrstand the comic.

Aaagh brain ache! I don't know any German. But that's mostly because I figured Spanish would be more useful.

I've learned a bit in my days as a Pro Yu-Gi-Oh! Player. Also a bit of Japanese and a bit of French.

Gareth Infinity · Post by **Gareth Infinity** » Wed Aug 27, 2008 8:59 pm

The only part of that I don't quite get is in the second line...what is "halten Sie" doing in there?

The rest, though having a couple little problems, I believe I understand and I won't start an argument on here because you may very well speak it better than I do.

I said I only know a BIT. Most of that was by Google Translator.
